I have to refresh my memory, but I remember that someone (the Mekhetarists?) put out a dictionary in Grabar, Ecclesiastical Greek and Latin. I wonder if it is online.

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.A hasty quarrel kindles fire,and urgent strife sheds blood.If you blow on a spark, it will glow;if you spit on it, it will be put out; and both come out of your mouth

On the page the link of which I've given you'll see the alphabet. Click on any of the letters, it will open and you'll see 4 buttons. The second and fourth buttons are for handwriting. To go back to the alphabet for the other letters, click on the word ԱՅԲՈՒԲԵՆ (you'll understand where to click yourself too).

The alphabet is the same, and there is some overlap in vocabulary between Classical and Modern Armenian, but the grammar is very different. Classical Armenian grammar is pretty complex, and is more difficult than Modern Western Armenian. Still, if you want to study Classical Armenian, go for it. It's quite beautiful.

I'm trying to seek an internship in Istanbul, and if I can at least learn a few phrases to converse with the Armenians of the City just for the heck of it, I'd be thrilled. Could I place my vote for Western, then?

Yes, you are correct. Western Armenian dialect originated in the dialect spoken in Constantinople.Here is a list of useful phrases in both Eastern and Western Armenian. Start with this and let me know if you would like more.
